Jason Roy, replacing David Warner in the Sunrisers Hyderabad XI for his first IPL game since 2018, scored a quickfire 60 to put his side on course in a run-chase of 165 against the Rajasthan Royals on Monday. Roy struck eight hits to the fence, and one over it during his 41-ball stay at the crease.

Roy, one of England’s premier white-ball batsmen, hasn’t quite got a long run in the IPL over the years. On Monday, replacing Warner in the SRH XI, Roy created an instant impact, adding 57-run stands each with Wriddhiman Saha and skipper Kane Williamson for the first and second wicket respectively, to put his side on course.

His innings were ended by a fine catch from Sanju Samson, who dived to his left to grab a faint tickle down the leg-side of Chetan Sakariya’s bowling.

Enjoy the stupendous knock
